[EN]The packet traffic being transported on networks nowadays is growing as
demand requests. Moreover, in local networks and especially in private
networks,more importance is given to the security in order to protect the data
that resides in these networks. For this reason, it is important to use the
minimum amount of time while implementing these security policies intended to
maintain high performance data traffic, and ensuring their safety. In this project,
the firewall will be analyzed, a security technique widely used in the business
environment. A driver will be integrated into a previously known firewall system
with the aim of looking for a improvement in the firewall’s performance in data networks.
